This widely used text is now revised and thoroughly up to date. A practical case-study approach helps health care students master the fundamentals of therapeutics while gaining a firm grasp of essential problem-solving techniques. True-to-life clinical scenarios are incorporated into every disease and disorder chapter to illustrate concepts and principles of therapeutics and to offer hands-on practice in developing therapeutic care plans. Comprehensive coverage of therapeutics fundamentals gives students an understanding of disease states and their treatments and how to apply optimal pharmaceutical care. This edition has two new chapters: "Delivering Culturally Competent Care" and "End of Life." A bonus CD-ROM includes an indexed, searchable version of the book for quick access to needed information.
